The Department of Social Protection provides a range of supports to community organisation through schemes such as community employment, Tús, the rural social scheme and the community services programme. These supports are structured in the form of direct and indirect provision of funding for staff to enable the delivery of services. The Department does not operate any scheme that provides direct funding for the provision of equipment to community organisations.
